love still dwells within

spells of quiet

suffering your absence

not too steep a price

gladly paid

for moments of sweet bliss

and elated joy

for the soothing taste

of our soul’s embrace

trust reigns

when surrendering to the resonance

of our beating hearts

and tenderness speaks

when re-membering

each other

my quiet suffering

spilling over to you

is not the end

but beginning to heal my scars

as love is stirred

and still dwells within
